Sounds alot,i don't pay that for my 245/45/16

[dixiebabes]

Aye i know thats what i thought but thats 2 different firms ive tried

[broadside]

Stick some TOYO's on I've have found them to be more than satisfactory on the 450. Other people will give you their opinions on different tyres. Try a search on here or try a website such as Blackcircles or mytyres.

I havent tried them myself but have heard that this place was a good place for tyres. There must be something good there as they are all under £100!

I paid 93 quid each for 225/50x15 Toyos last year (fitted).
I got them from a place on North Road in Darlington.

I think you need to shop around mate.

yeah the NCT5

Just bought some 225's for at 55 each. After Toyo, but the new ones are still on the boat. Think they were 90 each. All at a local tyre place that comes very close to the online places.

Edited the £70 to £55. Shows how much notice I take of the invoice.

or micheldever tyres near winchester are widely known as being very good, not sure they do postage though...

Very difficult to get grippy tyres in that size, I have some smaller nct5s on my wife's car and I am not that impressed with them, if you think they are anything like as good as the F1s (I have those on another car) you will be very disapointed. I ended up getting Bridgestone potenza RE720 V rated at £65 a corner fitted, they seem to work reasonably well on the 350.

He doesn't want grippy tyres, he wants Goodyears.

Bridgestone RE720 on mine as well.
Like them on the road (dry&wet) and track.
Around the same price, included fitting.

Cheers sadbloke but i am happy to pay the £8 extra and get the tyre fitted today appreciated mate

As for being more grippy lads, the tyres fitted to the car as origional are eagles and as the car itself is completly original down to the 80's style stereo im happy to go with goodyears but thanks for all your help
